Voting sessions were held Tuesday and Wednesday at Anonymous Hall on the main campus and in the Williamson Traditional Research Building at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center.
Thirteen months after student dining hall workers at Dartmouth College formed a union to win improvements in pay and working conditions, the Student Workers Collective at Dartmouth (SWCD) has won an agreement with the college that includes a $21 an hour base wage.
At a rally held Thursday in front of McNutt Hall, union members, mostly international students, described the long hours, inadequate pay, and the disrespect they experience from white, privileged Dartmouth students who make up much of the student body.
